20 year old, Serenity Faye Constantine, started with a rough start to life. She endured countless rapes, unspeakable beatings, gut-retching poverty, barren homelessness, and soul crushing losses. She looses her will to continue on in life and gets into heavy, hardcore drugs. Coke, Meth, Crystal Meth, Heroin, Acid, Pills, anything under the sun. If it was offered, she'd take it. She had hit rock bottom, living on the streets, addicted to anything she could pump into her system, and to the point of being suicidal, and she was ready to give up entirely. Right on the tipping point to oblivion, she meets an angel in disguise, and her world turns around. Her life gets better, and things seem to be alright besides a job at a sleazy strip club and a chillingly obsessed costumer named Marcus. Her life seems to finally be back on the rails, until it's not. With wrecking ball force, everything shatters and she's forced to live another life entirely. Twists and turns throw Faye into a dangerously fragile state of mind, and once again she is forced to fight for her survival.
